Frederik I of Denmark and Sweden (October 1 1471 - April 10 1533) was the son of King Christian I Oldenbourg of Denmark, Norway and Sweden (1426 - 1481) and of Dorothea of Brandenburg (1430 - 1495).

In 1502 he married Anna of Brandenburg (15 years old; a daughter of the cousin of his mother; 1487 - 1514). The couple had two children: Christian II (*1503) and Dorothea (*1504).

In 1513 Frederic became Duke of Holstein-Gottorp.

Frederics wife Anna died on May 5 1514, 26 years old.

Four years later, Frederic married Sophie of Pomerania (20 years old; 1498 - 1568), a daughter of Duke Bogislaw "the Great" of Pomerania. Sophie and Frederic had six children: Duke Johan of Holstein (*1521), Elisabeth (*1524), Duke Adolf of Holstein (*1526), Anna, Dorothea (+1528) and Bishop Friedrich of Hildesheim and Schleswig (*1532).

In 1523 his nephew, the King of Denmark and Sweden, was forced to abdicate. So he became the new King as Frederick I.

In 1525 his son, the following king Christian, married Dorothea of Saxe-Lauenburg (14 years old; 1511 - 1571).

He died on April 10 1533 in Gottorp. He became 61 years old.
